The Virtual Universe, "Purple Crystal Island" under the jurisdiction of the Ganwu Continent.

The island is dotted with palaces made of amethyst, each with distinct differences in height and grandeur. The most dazzling of them all is the Crystal Palace at the very center, which stretches for tens of thousands of kilometers.

Under the sunlight, this magnificent Crystal Palace reflects a variety of brilliant colors.

Brush!

An old man with green skin and a head full of wrinkles suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Crystal Palace.

Two World Master were guarding the entrance to the palace. Upon seeing his arrival, they respectfully greeted him, "Lord Man Luo."

Man Luo nodded slightly, then walked straight into the palace.

Inside the grand hall was a huge round table with a diameter of over a kilometer. Beside the table were three tall thrones, each occupied by a person.

"Black Annihilation Marquis, what brings you to us today?" The speaker was an ape-man with downy hair on his face, dressed in an exquisite and gorgeous purple robe, who was frowning as he spoke.

Hiss hiss hiss...

His purple robe was surrounded by wisps of purple lightning.

"Haha... Monkey, don't be so impulsive. I was the one who proposed today's meeting." A man with dazzling golden hair like the sun, three golden feathers on his head, and an eerily handsome face chuckled.

"What good things can you possibly say, you long-haired bird?" The ape-man glared at the strange-looking man and said disdainfully.

Although the ape-man's words were very impolite, the blond, sinister-looking man didn't seem to care, clearly they were used to insulting each other.

"Purple Lightning Marquis, Golden Feather Marquis!" A gentle voice rang out. It belonged to a barefoot girl draped in black gauze. Her gaze seemed to subtly twist the surrounding space and time. "Today's meeting may not be important, but it is quite interesting."

The black veiled girl said softly, "Man Luo has arrived. You can listen to what he has to say."

"Man Luo?"

The Ape Purple Lightning Marquis, was somewhat puzzled. This was his subordinate, the Minister of Commerce of the Virtual Universe Company of the Ganwu Universe Country. Many of the Commerce Department in various star regions were under the jurisdiction of Man Luo.

But what could Man Luo possibly have that would warrant the three of them gathering together?

The green-skinned old man entered the hall and gave a slight bow. "Minister!"

Golden Feather Marquis smiled and said, "Recently, the Peak Genius Battle held by our Virtual Universe Company has begun, and in the Ganwu Universe Country, a peerless genius who can wield the second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon has appeared."

"Out of curiosity, I checked his information and found that he joined our Virtual Universe Company's External Martial Department five years ago, and it shows that you were the one who handled it. Is that true?"

Before Man Luo could answer, the Ape Purple Lightning Marquis was stunned. "Stellar level being able to unleash the second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon? Such a genius can appear in the Ganwu Universe Country?"

This is not simple.

After saying that, he sneered again, "Jin Yu, my Virtual Universe Company has plenty of External Member. Is this something you need to claim kinship with? It's not like I've joined your Martial Department. What does my genius have to do with you?"

What he said made sense. Virtual Universe Company only invests resources in its Internal Member, but it is, after all, one of the strongest forces in the human race. Many people are willing to be nominally affiliated with external entities when they are recruited, even though there are no great benefits or restrictions.

Golden Feather Marquis shook his head and smiled, "This one is different."

"The system shows that Man Luo awarded him the Blood Sea Medal and also qualified him to attend our company's internal open classes on Purple Crystal Island."

Upon hearing this, the Ape Purple Lightning Marquis looked at Man Luo with some surprise. "This is not like you."

As an Immortal God, Man Luo's actions were not against the rules, but this was the first time he had done something like this in all his years at the Ganwu Branch.

Man Luo explained, "Minister, it's like this. Lin Yan, who used the second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon in the preliminary round of the Genius Battle, comes from the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain that I'm in charge of. His performance in the Slaughter Space was outstanding, which attracted my attention, so I personally recruited him."

"At the time, he was unwilling to join the company internally, but he was not opposed to joining externally. However, he put forward a condition: that he be allowed to enter and leave our company's World Lord's World in the Black Dragon Mountain Star Domain for training, and also to attend internal open classes."

"He said that as long as he could get such help, he would be absolutely confident of breaking into the top 100 in the universe, so I made an exception for him."

The Ape Purple Lightning Marquis, nodded slightly and clicked his tongue, saying, "The second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon, this should give us a chance to take first place."

"No." Black Annihilation Marquis's gentle voice rang out. "In this Genius Battle, the Noah Universe Country has produced an incredible peerless genius. His understanding of the Space Law at the Stellar level is enough to create hundreds of Phantom Body."

"Hundreds of Phantom Body?" Purple Lightning Marquis's eyes widened.

When did Stellar level become this powerful?

"Then that little guy named Lin Yan is just unlucky." Purple Lightning Marquis chuckled, "Stellar level can produce hundreds of Phantom Body. I've lived for so many years and I've never seen one before."

Black Annihilation Marquis nodded slightly. "But Lin Yan's talent is also very good. I watched his performance in the preliminaries, and he performed quite... perfectly in all aspects. He will definitely be able to enter the core of the headquarters. Since we have this connection, it is worth putting some effort into him."

"You know, Core Member at the Domain Lord level are sent to control a region in Universe Country, and most likely they will be sent to their hometown. Although members below the Original Secret Realm are assigned to positions lower than ours, they may inevitably come into contact with things that are not good for us, which will be difficult to deal with. So my idea is... to win them over in advance."

The blond, sinister-looking man raised an eyebrow. "Black Annihilation Marquis, you are of the light attribute, so you can make the decision about this matter. I have no objection to what benefits you want to give him, but this matter should remain a secret between us and not be spread to others."

The Ape Purple Lightning Marquis, nodded. "I have no objection either."

Winning over a Stellar level being wouldn't cost much. They are all King-level Immortal hold great authority, and anything they casually reveal is beyond the comprehension of Stellar level beings.

Black Annihilation Marquis said softly, "At the very least, his strength is enough to enter the Primordial Beginning Secret Realm, and his status is already quite high. This gift shouldn't be too meager, but it shouldn't be too heavy either, as that would only make him arrogant."

She thought for a moment and said, "I have an idea. The origin of the Extreme Divine Weapon is the Po Mirror Clan. They have countless secret techniques for using the Extreme Divine Weapon. I have known Heavenly Xi Marquis of the Po Mirror Clan for many years. I can ask her for a few and give them to him. These are basic secret techniques below the Immortal level. They are not very valuable, but they will be very useful to him."

Under normal circumstances, if you obtain Extreme Divine Weapon, you will only know some basic methods of control. As for how to unleash the strongest power of each level, it all depends on your own understanding and perception.

However, in the birthplace of the Extreme Divine Weapon, the Po Mirror Clan, the Extreme Divine Weapon has nine levels, each with its own corresponding secret techniques. These secret techniques were created by the geniuses of the Po Mirror Clan throughout the ages and are never easily revealed. They require a certain Law Comprehension to be used.

Purple Lightning Marquis's eyes lit up. "As expected of Black Annihilation Marquis, this idea is really good."

After all, the secret technique of the Extreme Divine Weapon was created by the Po Mirror Clan, and it is not even included in the treasure vault of the Virtual Universe Company. This raises the threshold for obtaining it. Although it is a secret technique below the Immortal level, it is very valuable to the user of the Extreme Divine Weapon.

That is indeed a very good idea.

The black veiled girl smiled gently, "Then let's arrange it this way."

In the vast starry sky of the Ganwu Universe Country.

A giant stands in the starry sky, the surrounding space is completely distorted, and his appearance is impossible to discern in the distorted space.

Boom!

Countless streaks of light swept across the starry sky, converging into a single image. The changing light and shadow revealed the battle between Lin Yan and Rong Jun in the 88th World Zone.

"The Sky Swallowing Cone... and the way it's being controlled seems to be effortless."

"Has the Ganwu Universe Country not produced such a genius for over thirty million years...? Well, I hope he can enter the Original Secret Realm. It would be of great benefit to me and to the Ganwu Universe Country."

The sound was deafening, and the surrounding starry sky seemed to tremble as if it were about to shatter.

Call!

A gray stream of air appeared out of nowhere in this starry sky, drifting slowly and hovering above the head of a kneeling giant.

The giant was over eight meters tall, wearing Scale Armor Robe and a helmet.

"Boom!"

The gray airflow exploded, revealing what was inside. It was about half a meter tall and shaped like an eye. Although it was solid, it looked like mercury and had an eerie sense of movement.

Its entire body is covered with intricate and wondrous Law Secret Patterns.

It radiates a silvery glow.

The Giant in Scale Armor gently took it and held it in his hands, the silver light shimmering in his eyes filled with the aura of death.

"Thirteen, give him my gift and tell him that he must not disappoint me." The deep voice resounded directly in the soul of the Giant in Scale Armor without any obstruction in the starry sky.

"Yes, Your Country Lord!"

The Giant in Scale Armor responded respectfully.

Go!

At this moment, the Giant in Scale Armor turned and left, while in the starry sky, that incomparably majestic and noble figure remained silent for a long time.

Finally, he let out a low sigh.

Thanks to everyone for the 10,000-point reward. Thanks to everyone for their monthly votes. With the support of double monthly votes, I have successfully exceeded 1,000 points. It is rare for a book with such an achievement like mine. I hope I have better luck during the lottery.
